tails: The roburte, the new explosive has
been called, has been in use for several years in
the coal mines near Dortmund with the most

that it is too expensive and that it is spoiled by

SENATOR SHERMAN and party were aston
ished at the enthusiasm and heartiness of his
reception in Nashville. He had expected a
polite reception, but received an ovation.
Nashville is Republican city, as is Chatta-
nooga, the next most enterprising city in
Tennessee In the South, as in the North,
Republicanism and progress 60 hand in hand.
The Southern cities that are growing most
rapidly are either Republican already or are
fast becoming so. In Nashville the Repub-
licans have about one thousand majority. The
present Republican Mayor is serving his sixth
term. But it is only fair to say that Mr..
Sherman's reception was partisan, the
best of feeling prevailing and Democrats
vying with Republicans to make the occasion
pleasant and memorable.

THE able scientists and witch-hazel sharps
who are stalking off the boundaries of the
natural gas belt in Indiana with as much con-
fdence as if the limits were defined on the
surface of the earth by red line, as on a
map, should consider the errors Of their
brethren who undertook to point out oil ter
ritory. In Pennsylvania. during the height
of the oil craze ''belt' was laid out by the
men who claimed to know all about it, and
many worthy citizen, impressed by high
sounding words and ans Of wisdom, re-
strained his eagerness to bore to the center of
the earth through his farm, and plodded on in
poverty. In later years enterprisng pros
pectors went beyond these boundaries and put
down wells, some of which proved to be the
most productive in the entire region. 1t was
repeatedly proved that so far as oil was con-
concerned, surface indications could not be
depended upon as guide. and that the
wiseacres who confined the deposit to a GER
tain geological formation were as widely
astray Scientific knowledge on the subject
is more accurate now, perhaps, but it is not
safe to place too much dependence upon the
say-so of experts" The interior of the
earth is book which has opened but few
| pages to the wisest of them.

On the day after his birthday Emperor Will
lam rose at his usual hour, fresh as a daisy, and
was kept in bed with fatigue and a cold which
he had caught while taking part in the fes-
tivities. These and similar circumstances
indicate that the German Chancellor is by no
means the young thing some people would
have US believe, and that the Emperor has
not lived up to his ninety years. Those who
are fond of specializing on future political
possibilities in Germany, should not depend
too much on the mortality tables.

NATURAL GAS FOR INDIANAPOLIS.

1t is not unlikely that events in the near
future will mark new departure in the his
tory of this city and give an impetus to its
growth that will be entirely without prece-
dent we refer to the possible discovery of
natural gas within such distance from the
city that it can easily be brought hither and
supplied for domestic and manufacturing pur-
poses. The work Of prospecting and boring
has already been commenced and will be Wig
orously pushed by company which has ample
means and is every way responsible Within
thirty days not less than five behring's will be
in progress at different points in the vicinity,
and it is the intention of the company to
pursue the matter to definite conclusion.
The expense Of piping gas is comparatively
slight, and its discovery anywhere within
twenty miles would be, for all practical pur-
poses. equivalent to finding it within the city
limits. The value of such discovery would
be inestimable and its results beyond COM
putation. 1t would prove an imme-
date and complete solution of the cheap
fuel question, would make Indianapolis indie
pendent of the coal roads, and place her at
once far in advance of any other Western city in
respect of manufacturing facilities. Even un-
der present conditions, its central position,
unequaled railroad facilities and advantages
as distributing point are steadily demon
strating its advantages in this regard. and our
manufacturing industries are all doing re-
markedly we'll. But the discovery of natural
gas would revolutionize everything. That,
added to the other advantages, would bring
indianapolis at once to the forefront Of manu-.
featuring cities, and would cause such an in
crease of business and population as was
never dreamed of before. We are not count
ing chickens before they are Matched, no,
banking on events thst may not happen. We
simply say the eggs are laid that may hatch.
The matter is still in the experimental stage,
but the experiment will be pushed with en-

Owing to the failure OF the general def
cheney appropriation bill, the Department of
Justice is beginning to be seriously embar
raised, and in some sections of the country
the fees of witnesses and United States Court
expenses can no longer be met. This state of
things will continue until July l, when the
next years appropriations will become avail
able. For this hampering of the courts and
delay of justice the last Democratic Congress
is responsible; but the average Democrat will
not be sorry, for he has but little regard for a
court that he cannot control. To the war
cry, ITO the victors belong the spoils," he
would add the words, "and the courts" and

Republican interference, his wish would have

CARTER HARRISON, after coquetting with
and then accepting the Democratic nomina-
ton for Mayor of Chicago, has finally declined
it. He was afraid to make the race. It is
seldom that a nomination has drawn such q
tremendous fire from the press. The city
press of Chicago was unanimous in opposing
him. and the hot shot they poured into him
compelled him to surrender. The moral eff.
feet would have been better had he made the
race and been defeated. He represented all
the worst elements Of the city, and his can
didacy would have afforded honest men of all
parties and classes chance to unite and
crush the enemies of law and order.

SENATOR sHERMAN,S SPEECH.

1t is very seldom that a political speech re-
ceives the circulation or commands the atten-
tion given to Senator Sherman's Nashville
speech The time and the circumstances
contributed to make this so. Senator Sherman
is great man, and what he might say under
any circumstances would command attention.
But speaking in time of political quiet. and
in the capital Of Southern State, and at a
customed to hearing much Of national poll
tics. made the speech conspicuous. 1t has
been very widely read, and there can be but
one opinion in regard to it. 1t was al able,
dignifed and statesmanlike address, worthy
of the reputation of the speaker as one of the
foremost of American statesmen Entirely
devoid Of passion and personalities, singularly
free from party rancor and heat it was, new
ertheless, powerful presentation of political
argument from the stand point of one who is
proud of his party and is himself an avowed
partisan. But Mr.. Sherman is more than a
partisan or politician; he is a statesman.
His career has been remarkably consistent
and symmetrical From his first entrance into
public life, more than thirty years ago, his
course has been steadily onward and upward.
Though not very old man, the beginning of
his public career reaches back into another
generation. Mr. Sherman is not quite sixty
four years old, yet he presided over the first
Republican convention held in Ohio, in 1855.
| He was first elected to Congress in 1854 and
has served continuously ever since, except
| during the period he was Secretary of the
Treasury. Having been reelected Senator
| for six years from the 4th of next March, he
| is likely to score the longest term Of senator
| ial service on record. From 1860, when he
was Republican candidate for Speaker of the
| House. until the present he has been conspic-
uous among its leaders and one of the fore.
most of American statesmen. His public
career covers long period of eventful history,
and as he is still in vigorous health it may be
hoped he has many years of usefulness yet
| before him
